Further Adventures of Sock Monkey Girl

[MJontheMend]

Thanks for the support everyone. I'm feeling a bit better. I should make the important note that on top of my poor interaction with FSG, I moved out of my former family home this week, I am having serious issues with the IRS and my suddenly all-grown-up son came and took custody of his dog yesterday. So it would probably be weird if I wasn't a little upset.

Okay, about the freak issue. First off I should note that I really had a very fun weekend with FSG. He is a workaholic so he kept dealing with various crisis items back in his office throughout the weekend but he made time to take me out to restaurants and the library, art museum, scenic overlook etc. Plus we had sex 6 or 7x if you count by boy orgasms (more otherwise).

Anyways, when we were out for dinner Saturday night he was a little surly. Usually he is very jolly. (He looks like a baby-faced bouncer and he wears a big silver belt buckle that says NERD and a diamond earring so we probably look quite cute together.) We were talking about some casual topic and he apologized because he was starting too many anecdotes with phrases like "This woman I used to date and I once.." I was like "That's cool. I know you've been single and dating most of your adult life. I start a lot of anecdotes with 'When my kids were toddlers..' I probably would have dated more if I hadn't married so young." and he said very casually, not meanly "That's true because you are a freak." So, I was hurt and p*ssed off and so after as few minutes of stewing, I reacted in my newly typical way which is to convey with extreme politeness that if for any reason he would not care to be in a relationship with me he could feel free to exit. Then he acted hurt and mystified about why I would say such a thing. I made it clear to him that I do not like to be referred to as a freak. He responded by saying "I have been accused of being insensitive so let me know if you feel like I have been. However, this is not one of those instances. You are a freak and there is nothing you can do about it so you better get used to it and embrace your inner freak and be proud. So I will continue to tease you about it." Then a couple rounds of sex later, I said to him "Maybe I'm a freak but you are a complete maniac." and he agreed. So that wasn't really the issue that caused us difficulties this week, it was just something that I was kind of trying to digest. As you may recall, NG and GP pretty much implied that I was a freak too and since they are respectively zero degrees of separation from the White Stripes and George Clinton, I guess it is true. My sister's new BF is actually zero degrees of separation from Iggy and the Stooges and he told her the same thing.

NOTE TO COBRA: I am completely sexually incompatible with my 2bx. He doesn't even like to f*ck really and he was completely envious of the fact that I do. A lot. A whole lot.
